Re: DP 10.1 Won't Boot on New Mac mini

Ha. Well maybe this will help somebody else, but simply deleting the pref file it mentioned let it boot. Nevermind!

DP 10.1 Won't Boot on New Mac mini RESOLVED

Hey all, Installing DP10 on a fresh (new) Mac mini running Mojave 10.14.5 and get this error message. I've tried doing an uninstall/reinstall and repairing permissions etc. Also the file it's mentioning is garbled. Any ideas? Many thanks! Digital Performer has encountered an error OS error reported ...

Re: DP Screen Redraw/Sluggishness

That seems silly, no? Seems like any chance to delegate graphics so CPU could focus on DSP would be smarter? What am I missing?

Re: DP Screen Redraw/Sluggishness

I just heard from a tech that DP handles graphics with the CPU and not the GPU? Anybody know if this is true? If so, a major blunder...Yowzer!

DP Screen Redraw/Sluggishness

So I'm running DP 9.13 with Sierra on my retrofitted Cheese Grater MacPro 12 Core - with an Nvidia 980 driving 2 4k displays and a Slate Raven. GPU meter is pretty low and DP is incredibly sluggish. Like drawing CC data when nothing's playing, etc. Big template but seems a bit odd. Any ideas out the...

Studio Upgrade Advice - Control Surface and Cuemix

I’m finally getting ready to retire my 2408mk3 and Panasonic DA7 mixing console! Most of my routing actually occurs through DP internally these days - so I really only use the console for AD/DA and monitoring dialog to music levels, click and speaker switching. All of this could happen in the box pr...

Just an update on my end. I went to Sierra and 9.12 and so far have been good...

Considering 9.13 now...

Re: Explode Music ala Finale

Thanks MM! Been forev.

That was my suspicion - thanks! It's a shame simple MIDI tasks can't be streamlined. Hell an old 486 machine could compute the explode music command! ;)

Explode Music ala Finale

Hey all - Getting ready to send DP sequences for music prep and am wondering if there's an "explode" option hidden reminiscent of Finale. Split points make you define a switching spot, as opposed to smartly recognizing voices. Any thoughts? I've always done it by manually selecting but was...

Re: Tracks Layouts are so great!!! EXCEPT...

I've had this exact problem as well. Both in 9.02 and slightly better in 9.12

Re: 9.12 and 2408mk3 Drops Out

THANKS. A few other things they said on techlink: - Adjust the "Prime Milliseconds" to 500. This is a subtle change to the audio engine buffer that I have seen positively impact performance. - Since DP's audio engine has been enhanced with the addition of Next-Gen Pregen, you are now able ...

Re: 9.12 and 2408mk3 Drops Out

I know that quitting out of DP and reopening did not fix the problem in my case...I didn't try toggling the 2408 in hardware setup though. I'm back in 9.02 now, so unless there's some kind of "fix" I'm likely sticking with that for awhile. I'm still a bit confused on how this isn't a bug. ...

Re: 9.12 and 2408mk3 Drops Out

I've scoured this forum and can't seem to find a specific thread on this issue where the audio interface drops out.

There is a solution or it's just a known issue (but not bug?)

Sorry if I'm being dense here!

Re: 9.12 and 2408mk3 Drops Out

I'm not sure I understand - but it's not a bug? I looked for other threads and am not tracking...

Is there a solution other than going back to 9.02?

Very curious - thanks much for your help!
